Merely owning a vehicle is an odd definition of skilled labor. They actually do a lot of community engagement (Uber now has huge operations teams all over the world) so that point is either ignorant or outdated. And you seem to object to the idea of independent contractors entirely (unless you can elaborate further), which is your right, but not really a unique strike against Uber. |

Having witnessed countless uber/lyft drivers do their thing I have to agree with your "skilled" assessment.
More on point -- my main objection is they are paying basically at cost pricing to the "driver-partners" when you add up all the costs. Basically, though many will disagree, all they're doing is taking the equity out of their vehicle now instead of at resale time.
